If you’re tired of spending money on homeschool programs that fall flat, this episode is for you. I share 10 of our favorite learning tools—from comic-style history to hands-on science kits—that brought joy back into our homeschool. HerHomeAndHeart.com
Hey friend—Katie here.
If you’ve ever thought, “I just want them to love learning, but nothing’s working…” this episode is for you. For years, I felt like I was running in circles—trying every workbook, game, and curriculum to get my kids excited about learning… and hitting wall after wall.
In today’s episode, I’m sharing 10 homeschool tools that have actually worked across all five of my kids—resources that helped us turn boring subjects into meaningful, engaging moments. From writing and grammar to Bible, science, history, and math, this is the exact list I wish I’d had earlier.
If you're exhausted from sifting through homeschool programs and second-guessing your choices, you’ll walk away with fresh ideas and new hope.
Let’s make learning joyful again—even on the hard days.
💛 Katie
